Sitting by the window, she watches the world go by

Does any body really know the pain she feels inside?

Every day she stands up tall, a smile upon her face

Hoping and praying that just for once it's happiness she'll embrace

Behind her laughter is a thousand tears

Tears that will never stop, not after all these years

The sadness and the anger, too hard to comprehend

Wondering if and when the nightmare's gonna end

Looking from the outside in, you see a girl without a care

But this girl has a story, too sad for her to share

Take a closer look, you'll see no sparkle in her eyes

All because of that one secret, the one she had to hide

Some day she hopes the world will see

Or someone will listen and set her heartache free

But until that day comes…..

The girl you're looking at from the outside in,

Is actually dead from the inside out.

Beautifully put!

I remember being on that side of the window, very well indeed! Hugs!
